Cloud computing is a term, which involves virtualization, distributed computing, networking, software and web services. Cloud computing changes the paradigm of computing by providing computing as service. To provide scalable services to a user, load balancing a key requirement for customer satisfaction and proper work management. This paper proposes an effective load balancing algorithm using various parameters to distribute the load efficiently among various processors enabling better resource utilization and system response time. This proposed method assigns priority to the server and balance the load to servers according to propriety and also considering the waiting time. This proposed method almost guarantees the maximum throughput in minimum response time, and thus the user has to wait for minimum amount of time to get the job done.
